This issue is a testament to our goal of renewing with vigor the initial paradigm of the college as stated by our founding dean, William W. Wurster, nearly fifty years ago — Our first duty is toward our students of course, but we have another and very pressing duty. That is our duty to California as a fast-growing and increasingly urban state, and we must serve her well in creating beauty, preventing disorder, and making the best use and preservation of her natural resources. Hills, water, land, and forest must all be carefully conserved as the structures of man compete for the space they occupy. Proposing strategies for watersheds in the East Bay, working on an urban design plan for the City of Pittsburg in collaboration with the East Bay AIA, or making recommendations for the future of the City of Berkeley parks system, our students and faculty are collaborating and using the best practices to fulfill our responsibility to the community, state, and the world in creating sustainable, equitable, and enriching environments.
